I'M SELF-RELIANT

According to Emerson I am self reliant. Which isn't every one already I mean at this age we are already thinking for ourselves and making our own decisions every if they might not be the best but. There is a almost bad reputation on people who don't obey rules or follow orders but when you can tell that thinking outside the box would work better than what someone else has in store for you take it. It will mean more to you and will make you see things differently. I fell that being self reliant is almost in stead of being a choice it is something that naturally happens and you can stop it but it can happen faster if you accept that it is there.

AUTHOR IN PROGRESS

As I have to think of my self as now a author in progress is very odd I can't really understand Emerson and his writing because it is older and more technical then amy thing I even say. I feel that I need to just focus and try to understand the message that he has about how every one should just relie on themselves then on what other people have p say. I get that but he uses metaphors and other examples to make very hard to understand.

THE MIND MAP

The mind map is something that at first is just really messy and i don't understand the actual use of it. I have put somethings on the map and i have also seen that there is some things that people put that dont have any relation to what we are learning and there are about 3 or 4 vocab lists that say the same thing.

PSTA

I did not enjoy this experience well because the seats in the auditorium were uncomfortable and for me i got really cold. The process of getting every one in was bad because they wanted to have every one line up 1 by 1. When we were leaving instead of doing to a row by row they did it by every 10 which took forever. The test was pretty hard but in some spots i fell i did better. In the math section i think i just sucked because i forgot i get a calculator which then made some problems extremely hard.

The art of hosting good conversations online

I feel that the purpose of having conversations online if to communicate with new people and build a community that your can then learn from. I feel that when your are a host your have a certain responsibility that you have to almost follow because you are in fact the person who is running the show. A good host should be nice and welcoming to new people who are barely coming into this new found community.

BEST SHIRT EVER

MY AMERICAN VOICE

Speak up when you feel that it is necessary. I think that if it means something to you then it is a responsibility but then if you don't want to it is an inconvenience. I think that some one should do it for both. Yes they should. No because then you can be called out for ruining something.

He plans to build a fringe between Mexico and the U.S. He makes people feel melancholy. trump never speaks earnestly. That's why he always gets dissolved.

LITERATURE ANALYSIS #2

1. A young Englishman named Jonathan Harker travels through Transylvania on a business trip. He is there to aid Count Dracula, a Transylvanian nobleman, in buying an English estate.
2. One of the themes of Dracula is foreignness because Dracula is not human and that is the challenge that Johnathan has to face.
3.I feel that Bran Strocker wakes up late and sleeps during that day and he probably drinks tea instead of coffee. He probably wishes he wasn't hungover and he probably doesn't even eat breakfast but if he did it would just be tea and crumpets. 
The impression I had was that we were leaving the West and entering the East

In the library I found, to my great delight, a vast number of English books, whole shelves full of them, and bound volumes of magazines and newspapers

"I long to go through the crowded streets of your mighty London, to be in the midst of the whirl and rush of humanity, to share its life, its change, its death, and all that makes it what it is."
4.
Symbolism: Dracula ain't just about the paranoia that your neighbor might be a psycho. It's about the (hopefully more justified—we hope your neighbors are the kind you can borrow a cup of sugar from) paranoia that the British Empire was going the way of the dodo bird

Tone: here was something about them that made me uneasy, some longing and at the same time some deadly fear. I felt in my heart a wicked, burning desire that they would kiss me with those red lips. It is not good to note this down, lest some day it should meet Mina's eyes and cause her pain; but it is the truth. (3.29)


Narrative Point of View: Bram Stoker clearly lived by the ethos of "the more the merrier." There are definitely more narrators in this bad boy than in your average novel.

LETTER TO MENTOR

Dear mentor,

                  I would like to say if you had any advise for my big question in my English class. Which  is I feel that my big question would be do we chose a career path that means something that we would love to do or something that you hate but will give a lot of success? I would like to ask if you have been inside my situation where some one is telling you that you should do this while you don't even know what you would want to do. My mom for a long time have been telling me ideas about what i should do but for me i have no idea what  I want to do. For me i can't really tell what i would like to do because some people are telling me ideas that would get me some good money but for me i would like something that would let me do something that would make me feel happy and something that would make me happy. If you have any ideas on what i should do i would really like to hear them. Sometime i feel that there is nothing that i could do because some people like my cousin would chose a career and then get a job that is completely different then their major. I feel what people say don't really have an impact on me but when my mom gets angry at me for not knowing what i would want to do it gets aggregating but if you could tell me some ideas on what to find out that would be good.
